Intro G 

verse 1 
G 
A humble little bumblebee 
   C             G 
one sultry summer day 
G 
Worked so hard he didn't see 
    A                   D 
the cow that grazed his way 
G 
He learned about the cows too late 
   C             G 
he really hadn't known 
G 
the cow was there until she ate 
    D              G 
the flower he was on 

verse 2 
G 
Well, to be a bee or not to be 
    C            G 
the bumblebee he said 
G 
"If I don't manage to get free, 
    A                 D 
I'll probably end up dead" 
G 
Then he looked around 
  C                    G 
to try to get away somehow 
G 
and he found that he was surrounded by 
    D            G 
the insides of a cow 

C           G 
Poor little bumblebee 
C                 G 
hard work was his down fall 
     C                      G 
that's how he got surrounded by 
         D              G 
the cow's thick stomach walls
 

verse 3 
G 
Vengence cried the bumble bee 
 C               G 
Vengence on this cow 
G 
I'll sting her cause she swallowed me 
      A               D 
but I can't sting her now. 
G 
I'm weak, i'm tired, my pep is sapped 
    C                    G 
I can't sting her like I should 
G 
I think I'll take a little nap 
            D           G 
and then I'll sting her good 

verse 4 
G 
And so the bee fell fast asleep 
    C                   G 
and slept for hours and hours 
G 
in order that he might rebuild 
    A                 D 
his weakened stinging powers 
G 
But in the end this proved too unwise 
    C                G 
you see he slept too long 
G 
when he woke to his surprise 
    D                G 
he found the cow was gone 
 
C           G 
Poor little bumblebee 
C                    G 
you see he slept too long 
    C                   G 
and now he'll never get revenge 
       D            G 
because the cow has gone
 

Outro 
C           G 
Poor little bumblebee 
C                 G 
Yes, he slept too long 
     C                      G 
and now he'll never get revenge 
       D              G 
because the cow has gone
